A key part of VKOR is the function of the cap domain | A key part of VKOR is the function of the <scene name='90/904314/Cap_Domain/1'>VKOR Cap Domain</scene>, which is located at the top of VKOR towards the intracellular part of the membrane. The cap domain assists with activating Vitamin K as it induces the structural change of VKOR from the open conformation to the closed conformation when the substrate binds. This initiates a domino effect through the [https://reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/S0021925820001386?token=9F8E1964241D20488CA55E035D35D9A5D650A7B3FDAD9A5579598A8DC00127539BE71CF1785B117102144AC1F41ABB6C&originRegion=us-east-1&originCreation=20220329001707/ catalytic mechanism].
